What's a wheel spin?

if you find this game unrealistic, get GT4 which is as real as it gets. plus you cant really stop the "wheel spin" unless you get pressure sensitive keys.

Or unless you play PS2, with a controller or wheel especially.

When the tyres are losing their grip and the wheels start spinning..

Kind of like a burnout.

exactly like a burnout... lol...

The skyline shouldn't wheelspin at all, being 4WD....

Skyline is RWD

Skyline is AWD

It depends... GT-S is RWD, GT-R is 4WD...

The car in the game (GT-R) is then 4WD (obviously). I've got a few Skyline videoclips tho, and it's not impossible for a 4WD car to have wheelspin...

well i cant explain corectly (becaus of my bad english) but skyline is somthing betwen 4WD and (edited

) RWD.

Post by **Morty** » 03 Mar 2005, 22:35

Isn't 4WD (4 Wheel Drive) and AWD (All Wheel Drive) the same? Anyway, if I remember correctly, the 4WD/AWD kicks in when you drive hard (on the GT-R). With "normal" driving, you only have RWD... Need some real Skyline experts on this, I think

doesnt someone own a R32 here?

Andre_online · Post by **Andre_online** » 04 Mar 2005, 00:06

GT has as Skyline, am I right? On his sigpic shows it.

Post by **Morty** » 04 Mar 2005, 00:13

GT has a red (spoilerless

) Skyline R32 GTS-t, if I remember correctly

Corolla GTS · Post by **Corolla GTS** » 04 Mar 2005, 00:14

Yes, GT has an R32. I read in one of his posts.
But, some Skylines are RWD, including an R34, I don't know the name of it though. There is also a 4WD one, in this game. The RWD one is in GT2.
That's my two cents.

Just look at his sigpic if you have forgotten.

i dont see the skyline in his sig... is it the white one in the back?

MonteCarloSS · Post by **MonteCarloSS** » 04 Mar 2005, 04:40

Sorry, I have many video clips of skylines.

Getaway in Stockholm for example, RWD only skyline.

End of discussion.

they are all skylines. im sure you can modify a car to have any type of drivetrain you want. so i wanna see a front wheel drive mustang, front wheel drive SUV

Frost ViXeN · Post by **Frost ViXeN** » 04 Mar 2005, 08:37

You could, but it would be a mission and cost a fortune... Cars chassis and undercarrages are designed to take a certain drive train... if you made an FWD to be RWD, you'd need to modify the chassis to take the new DIFF as well as modify the undercarrage to allow for the new Drive shaft... It's been done...

A mate of mine has an Opel Corsa GSI witha RWD mod on it... Cost him as much as the car itself cost... But it's handling is Wicked now...

They are all Skylines. Mine is the one in front at the left. These are all R32s and R33s.

Skylines have actually been around since 1955. There's a full history available over at JB Car Pages.

There are a wide variety of configurations available including RWD, AWD, turbo, non-turbo, twin-turbo, a couple of engines, coupe, sedan, you name it. The car in the game is the R34 GT-R - 4WD, 4WS, twin turbo, RB26DETT 2.6l inline six-cylinder. It fricken ROCKS. JB does a nice road test here.

One final note. Lots of people have heard the name 'Godzilla' applied to Skylines. Most have it all wrong. There is only one Godzilla model - the BNR32 GT-R. Some trivia, it was because of crushing victories from this particular car in it's debut in Australian touring car racing that the rules for the entire thing were changed to exclude imports and require only Australian-built V8 touring cars in subsequent years. Sore losers if you ask me!

Godzilla..

BTW, as Morty correctly pointed out, mine is the RWD R32 GTS-t. Baby brother to Godzilla.

but for r34 models, i remembered that only GTRs are 4WD....the other coupe editions are all rwd....and the only way to stop whell spin is to only accelerate after the go.....dun hold the accelerater before 1....

Yeah it is AWD so it supposed not spin but it has 500HP.
